There are many treatises on the language of Taiwan, but few sources of the Taiwanese are theoretically based on the texts from the Chinese classic novels. This book belongs to such a unique few. The author explicitly adopts the unique Yilan dialect in the presentation and shows his passion for his native language. The presentation is rather different from academic approaches and is easy for readers to enjoy. This book is one of the best writings on this subject in recent years. The material in this book has been published in the Chinese language. The material in this volume is presented in the Taiwanese language, in an attempt to show its richness. The author, Yingtang Lu, was born in Yilan, Taiwan. He enjoys thinking, reading, hiking, travel, arts, music, and writing.
